+<h2>How to play</h2><br>
+<font size="5">
+<b>htetris</b> is a variant of the old and well known game tetris.
+The game is a single player game and is played by moving differently shaped
+bricks into positions so that they form an area as compact as possible.
+The bricks are falling down and can be moved left or right, rotated counter
+clockwise and put directly into place in the current horizontal position
+without waiting for them to fall all the way down.<br>
+The goal of the game is to acheive as many points as possible. Points are
+gained by completing rows. That is, to place the bricks so that rows without
+"gaps" are created. Twenty points are earned for each completed row.
+If more than one row is completed by placing a single brick, five poits
+extra per additional row are obtained.<br>
+A filled row disappears and everything built above it is shifted down one row.
+The game is lost when the top of the building pane is reached in such a way
+that the next upcoming brick can not be placed in its initial position.
+To help the player a little bit, the next upcoming brick is always
+shown during a game in progress.<br>
+There is also a notion of difficulty levels which ranges from 1 to 15.
+The higher the level number, the faster the bricks fall. The game starts
+by default at level one and increases the level after twenty rows have
+been completed.<br>
+A game can at any time be stopped, paused or restarted. If the current
+score happens to be higher than the highscore, the highscore is not
+updated. Also, the application can be closed at any time during a game.<br>
